“Deanne provided daily drop-in dog walking for my 1 year old golden puppy, Daisy. Daisy is full of energy and can be a bit much but she always seemed happy when I got home from work after having a walk with Deanne. Deanne was always flexible with hours, often accomodating change in dog walking times as needed. She always sent photos of Daisy during or after the walks. I would highly recommend Deanne for her services!!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. I’ve worked at pet stores and currently work at a Doggy Daycare and Boarding facility (Love Unleashed, St. Louis) while at university. I want to make pets feel the least amount of stress as possible, while their humans are away. I want to give them Love, Security, and Fun. For this Summer, I’m available after 6pm Monday -Thursday. And anytime Friday- Sunday until August 20th when I head back to University. I will be completely available for Pet sitting in the Lake County area during the winter holidays. Each situation is different so the amount of time spent with a pet will be dictated by the pet parent. Whatever your fur baby needs is what I will give them. If I am house sitting, I will respect your space and follow the rules and standards that you set. I will ensure fences are latched and leashes are secured. Each pet will have their individual needs met.

“This was my first experience with River and I must say it was great. The entire process was easy and seamless. Bill was awesome with the dogs. Riggs and Gibson came back content and obviously exercised. Thanks so much for your help today while I recover from my foot ailment.”

About: I am starting a new chapter in life and now choosing to care for and love on your pets in your home! They have the truest hearts! At the present I am completely open regarding my schedule while I start a new chapter in life. I’m currently striving to start my own business and create my own schedule. I am available for pet sitting in your home as well as potty breaks, playtime, and walks. I am very detail oriented so please know your pets will be cared for in the exact manner in which you wish! Your animals will be loved and cared for just as you would.

About: I've grown up with animals my whole life- cats, dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, reptiles, etc. I've taken care of pets of all ages, from young to senior. I am available all days of the week, including the weekends. My time schedule is flexible and I would also be able to do drop in visits or stay overnight as well. By following owner specific instructions when given, I strive to make both the pet(s), and thus the owner, feel safe while under my current care.

“Highly recommended A+++ Linnea was great with our little pup, on schedule and very kind to our family. Very down to earth warm hearted person that I would recommend to anyone! Thank you!!!”

“We starting using Lori about two weeks ago and she has been great. Chelsea, our dog, loves her. The weather had been rainy windy and cold lately but she is still taking great care of her and it truly puts my mind at ease while working knowing Chelsea is in good reliable hands. ”

About: I have recently transitioned to a stay at home mom, which opens me up to caring for your fur children. I have grown up around dogs all my life, our family has a 4 month old Australian shepherd who is very social! My husband and I have 3 young sons who also are animal lovers. I am currently a stay at home mom and very flexible with my schedule, but will have the most flexibility on the weekends. Late morning and early afternoon would also be available We do have a large yard, our mini Aussie Bella loves the space to run! Our home is spacious and plenty of room for your pet to explore!

About: I grew up with a sweet smooth collie and helped take care of her throughout my childhood. These days I take care of friends and families dogs while they go on vacation or just need a quick sitter for the day/night. I also have a pet chinchilla, Cheaches, that I take care of everyday :) I'm a elementary teacher, so my availability during the summer is very open. I plan to be home full time most days but things do come up. If I need to be away I will always prioritize coming back to care for the pets. I'm very comfortable with all dogs no matter the size or breed. I have handled a variety of dogs from timid to major explorers. Any instructions given to me I will happily follow. I have always had a easy time connecting with dogs! They are truly mans best friend and I understand just how much they mean to their families :)

About: I’ve been an animal lover all of my life! I move frequently so I can’t have a pet just yet. This makes it easier because I still get to spend time with animals! I live with my girlfriend so we can both help take care of your animal! This allows us to work together to make sure your pets needs are met! We will be very present so we will always have an eye on your pet! We will send quick updates to help owners stay connected and reassured. We are outdoor enthusiasts so your pets will get their daily exercise everyday!

About: I'm Nickie, and on top of being an overall animal lover, I've had a number of pets in my life, and worked in the vetmed world for more 10 yrs. I'm firm with pets when necessary, but I'll love them as my own instantly. I believe in taking my time with them, and letting them come to me. In the case of cats, I dont take it personally if they run and hide. (We all know they do everything on their own terms anyway.) I've learned messes happen, and don't shy away from cleaning them up. Should I be invited into your home, I am respectful and courteous. I do everything I can to work with you and your animals' schedules. I mostly work for myself from home, but also work part-time as a special asst ~10hrs/week. Overall, my schedule is quite flexible. As for my own little zoo, I have a female pitbull named Annie B. Nannie, two female kitties named Freddie Spaghetti and Penny Parmesan, and chonky male cat name Kevin Pickles. He's 2 years younger than all my girls, but is bigger and the main bringer of chaos. I have a part time personal asst role about ~10hrs per week in Lake Forest (days vary from week to week), but primarily work for myself from home the rest of the week. These positions allow for a pretty flexible schedule to work within your animal care needs. Should you want something outside what Rover allows you to choose (sometimes odd requests/needs happen), just select what is closest and send me a message to explain. More often than not, we can make it work with a bit of explaination/clarification. I care for your animal family members in your own home and work with them on their terms, and at a pace that feels comfortable to them. I understand messes can happen and nerves can get the better of some, while others instantly want to be my new best friend. I work with patience, kindness, understanding, and respect. I am unable to care for your furlings within my own home at this time, but am happy to go to you.

About: Hello I currently own 2 dogs and 3 cats. My friends, family, and neighbors rely on me when going on trips to help out with their fur babies. Doing their feeding, taking them for walks, playing with them, giving them medication if needed or just keeping them company. I currently work from home and have a pretty flexible schedule. To do drop in visits, or walks it’s also helpful that I’m home all day to keep an eye on your babies and play with them on my breaks. I have a fenced yard big enough for your pet to run around, or play with my dogs that enjoy company. Either your pet likes to play outside with toys or receive lots of cuddles, or walks. I do require a meet and greet before setting anything up to see if everyone gets along.

About: I have had animals of all walks of life since I was a child. Dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, ducks, fish, bunnies and even a donkey. Animals have naturally been drawn to me and I have often been the only one to help an animal. I show all animals unconditional love and care. I have nursed senior dogs until they need to cross the rainbow bridge. I am available for early morning, afternoon and evening help. I work from home and have the flexibility to meet the needs of a pet in my care. I am not able to care for animals in my apartment. All services will be on site for the client and their pet. I will adhere to the clients wishes for their pet once we establish a relationship.

“Thank you, my Rex enjoyed his walk. We hope to see you soon.”

“Wally was a stellar dog Walker for my dog Milo! Wally kept us updated and went above and beyond on walk time and TLC, putting salve on Milo's paws after his walk. Milo is a tentative dog, it's clear that Wally won his trust. We will definitely be repeat customers!”

About: Your dog(s) will be able to run around and go exploring on 2+ acres of my securely fenced yard or if they prefer to take long naps by the fireplace that can be arranged as well. Your dog's individual needs will come first. I work from home so I am able to monitor them all day/night long. I grew up with a variety of animals and I worked as a vet assistant for small and large animals in the past. Taking care of animals is my passion and I believe each animal senses that and immediately feels at home. I can watch your cat(s) or other exotics as well. Ideally, I would like to help others enjoy their time off knowing their pets are having a great time. If interested, we can set up a booking with a pet photographer. I have a variety of animals on our farm that need care throughout the day. The dogs love to "help out". We stay pretty busy everyday checking on the well being of our pets. My acreage is completely fenced in. The dogs are mainly in the backyard where I can watch them at all times when outside. Inside the dogs have access to all the main rooms. I have crates set up for dogs that like to use them. There are dog beds scattered throughout the first floor so dogs can chose where they want to hang out.

About: Growing up, I've had numerous different breeds of pets, such as dogs, turtles, fish, hamsters, frogs, etc. So I am capable of taking care of all animals breeds. I’ve volunteered many times over these past couples years at local animal shelters and have 3 dogs of my own. I am also proud to be a part of the Aiding Animals Club at Ole Miss which provides me with additional animal care regularly. I've always been a huge animal lover and have always had a desire to have a pet throughout my life. I’m currently enrolled as a student at ole miss and have classes from 1-2 everyday, so I have plenty of time in the afternoon and on Tuesday and Thursdays to help take care of your pups! I have a small backyard with a leash in the ground for my dogs to run around in and play in. I also have a neighborhood to walk my dogs around.
